When: October 7, 2025, 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Presenter(s): Jeneca Parker-Tongue (C-SELL); Sarah Suatoni (Awareness In Motion; Columbia University)
We can’t assume that our students feel like they belong here—in college, at Hunter, or in New York City—but how do we cultivate a sense of belonging? For individuals and as a collective? In this session, presenters and participants will share how we co-create structures in our classrooms and workplace that help us to connect in our shared humanity. This session features colleagues from C-SELL to guide us. Jeneca Parker-Tongue is the Director of the Hunter College Collaborative for Social Emotional Learning & Leading (C-SELL). The Collaborative integrates SEL into teacher and leadership education. She will be joined by the author of Conscious Communication: A Guide to Building Connection, Collaboration, and Community, Sarah Suatoni.
